    Default Jabari Parker is a 6'8 Caron Butler

    Caron Butler was a damn good player for the Wizards.Not a knock on him at all but i don't see Melo or Paul Pierce in his game im sorry.A 6'8 Caron Butler is still a All Star level caliber player and he will have a good career.

    I see Carmelo Anthony's body with Andre Igyy's gameplay, just not as athletic.

    Iggy with less athleticism is a solid role player at best.

    I think if Parker gets drafted by the Bucks he will be another Glenn Robinson. Good career and good offensive player, but not a big impact player. He will need other guys around him. I'm not saying that his play style will be the same as Big Dog, but what he will bring to the team.

    His athleticism is underrated. Not as atheletic as Iggy obviously, but not that far off honestly. He really should shed 5-10 pounds of body fat and gain about 5 pounds of muscle.

    Jabari's much more polished than both Butler and PP at the same age.

    Iggy is a top 5 perimeter defender at worst though. Parker was benched for his D in the tournament I believe.

    True. I was only thinking about offense when I posted, should have clarified. I think if he sheds weight he could be a pretty good defender onr day though.

    Maybe. I agree that Parker's an underrated athlete though.

    I feel like a lot of people forget when evaluating Wiggins/Parker that they're watching two 18-year-old guys, not finished products. These guys just got their drivers licenses a couple of years ago and we're making direct comparisons to grown men.

    That's a tough thing to do. Even the best players in the league were not what you see now when they were 18.

    More mythology being spread. Jabari banged all game against a college 5 who was bigger than him. At end of the game, the opposing team subbed in a smaller lineup full of shooters, all SG. Banging in the post all games leaves you slow to guard smaller players.

    Even Bosh acknowledges this. Wigginstans love to dwell on this incident.

    Parker plays absolutely nothing like Iggy.

    Melo is the guy I think of whenever I watch Jabari.

    I like how you listed 6'8 as if thats much different than Caron Butler's height of 6'7.
